If i can not go into a store and purchase what I want with no hassle, there will be no deal

I have no intention to sucking up to a salesman at a watch store.

[lakerfan]

I visited Ben Bridge an AD for Rolex a couple months ago. I did everything you mentioned. Came in dressed nice, struck up a nice conversation with the salesman, talked about what I do for a living, was very polite. 2 months later he called me with my first dream watch. He sold it to me, I was shocked. I know people that have waited anywhere from 1-2 years to get their first Rolex, and even had to make other purchases in the store to start building a relationship. I guess I was lucky.

Im new to watches and ive always wanted a rolex, but after learning about the rediculous buying procedure, im out. Im not going to try to impress someone or pretend like someone im not, in the hopes of them allowing me to spend my own money.

I have previously owned 3 Rolexes and long sold them. Life goes on even when you don't own a Rolex...Don't fall for the hype!

Thank you, this video finally convinced me that I’ll put my money elsewhere and hope Rolex as a company will stop the fake supply shortage

Just acted normal and asked If I could be on the waitlist for a Rolex Air-King 116900 back in 2021. I had patience and right before Christmas after hearing the rumors of the Air-king being discontinued I decided to go 1 time to ask about my situation and had a polite conversation with the AD. Suddenly when the 126900 got released in March, later in 2022 I got a call and my Air-King 126900 that I wear proudly 😉

Thank you for the effort you put into your video. However, I must respectfully disagree with some of the comments and advice provided. -First and foremost, it's crucial to emphasize that you should never resort to begging. -Second, it's essential to recognize that when you buy something, you become the most important person in the room. Retail staff should earn their wages by providing a pampering experience, especially when you are making an expensive purchase. -Third, part of the luxury experience is the entitlement to respect and personalized attention. You are, after all, paying for this level of service. -Fourth, respecting your own time is crucial. If you can afford a luxury item like a Rolex, then you certainly cannot afford to waste your time. If you are not satisfied with the service you receive, it's perfectly acceptable to leave and explore other options. Remember, by purchasing their product, you are doing them a favor, and there are numerous alternatives available for you. -Fifth, it's important to remember that when dealing with a retailer, the staff is there to sell you a product, not to form friendships. You enter a store to make a purchase, not to establish personal connections with the employees.

Just came to the store, I was simply passing through and in a month had 1st Rolex Oyster. Besides didn't pay it approximately for 2 weeks as was on vacation and then on karanteene due to covid. Looks like I was doing everything not as suggested in video and it works.

This is the most comical one of these videos I’ve watched. It’s hilariously ridiculous 😂😂😂

[Allworldsk]

If you have a chance to buy one you should definitely buy one for the investment. It's been 10, 000 you can wait a couple years and get a large increase. If you spend 15 to 20000 you can immediately sell it on the secondary Market propose to a 50% profit

1 st time walking in any ad ever I was offered a rose gold $41k Daytona. I’m so embarrassed to say I admitted it was too much watch for me thanks for the opportunity and walked out with my heart broken.

I have a very simple solution...buy an Omega.

[paruke]

I got a Submariner offered to me in Miami. Wore a t shirt and sandals, went there to just try them on. Didn't buy because it was more expensive than here in Canada with the current exchange rate. Went to a dealer here, told me I might get in 2024-25 lol. I did put my name on the waiting list. Went to another AD, they were trying hard to sell me Datejust and other brands to build a relationship with them. I told them I'm not coming back. I think you need to show some real interest and some luck is also involved. Have no regret. 🙂

This is ridiculous, so what if someone isn't dressed nice but still has the money to buy? I don't wear suites or ties and I've gone into Rolex dealers, and no one treated me wearing a $10 shirt any differently than someone wearing a $1000 suit. I'm always honest when I walk in, I simply say I'm browsing and if they ask me what I'm looking for I tell I love the brand, but the watches are out of my price range. You'd be surprised how many sales Reps actually are friendly. i believe it's because I upfront and honest and not wasting their time.

[ryanelectra]

I’ve done all these things, common sense stuff. But it has worked for me, I can get pretty much anything. Only thing I’d add is be patient, not pushy.

Great video about watch, but 7:47 is not Rome at all. Doesn't even look like Colosseum.

[boomerang]

I've had my Rolex watch for close to 20 years. I bought two: one for my wife and one for me. I had no problem getting their attention. Because it was right before Christmas, they gift-wrapped them for me without me even asking.

[lzalab]

Just buy in a airport, no waiting list 😂

[leesin]

Went to one today... and yea, its like an interview process, you have to beg them to take your money.
